The dealer labor rate closest to me is $84.00 per hour. I am 20 miles
from Boston. How does that compare with anyone else? It's been that for
the last year.

$79.00 where I was working...Northampton (80 miles from Boston)
Since you guys generally pay more for EVERYTHING out there, I would say
$84 isn't bad.

Well, if he were 20 miles EAST, he'd better have his floatation gear out!

Hey!
Bay Area - SF - CA. I don't charge myself much, just a couple of beers.

Yeah, I know what you mean! I took my truck for rotation and balance, aware
that my front pads were getting close. I had to pass up their nice offer of
$90 for the pads and $90 for the labor!

The labor rate for the Olds Delmont was probably $15 or $16 per hour. I
love it when he takes the moral high ground. Ask him if he met with
Mary Jo's parents after he killed her.
That's about right, if a few bucks on the high side. It isn't outrageous at
all.

The labor rate is generally configured from the warranty reimbursement rate,
paid by the individual manufactures. The labor rate in a given area is
therefore pretty much the same from dealer to dealer of the same brand.
Import brands labor rates in general are higher than domestics, in the same
area however. When I was still in retail we always charge a higher rate for
the techs in our import stores, even in our multi dealership where the same
techs would work on several brands. Why? Because we could.
